Rooters

More soldiers than sailors attended the game, but energetic Navy rooters outshouted the Army supporters. Petty officers led them in organized cheers like this one:

Strawberry shortcake, huckleberry pie,
V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!
Are we in it? Well, I guess!
Navy, Navy! Yes, yes, yes!

The energetic American soldiers and sailors often saluted the British monarch with chants and cheers. George V good-naturedly bowed to the compliments.

Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
King! King! King!
